Suggest Remedy For Injury From Bike Accident
I was thrown off my bike yesterday while wearing a helmet, and I landed on my knees, head, and right hand. I now have a cut on my right eyebrow, with some swelling underneath it, a scraped right palm, a scraped right shoulder that is slightly stiff, a stiff/painful left knee, and a scraped and less stiff right knee. What should I do?

Cut over ur right eye brow requires suturing. And a ophthalmology consultation is required to rule out eye injury.
Scrapped right palm should be dressed following proper wound irrigation. If associated restrictions of mobility of joint near by then a check xray of hand and wrist.
Shoulder and both the injured knees xrays of ap n lateral views are must to rule out underlying bone injury.
